Gelatinous Siphon Sheath Templates the Starfruit-Shaped Aragonite Aggregate Growth

Biomimetic synthesis of aragonite with various templates in vitro is an important way to understand the biomineralization process and synthesize nacre-like materials. Herein, we used the siphon sheath from the bivalve Lutraria sieboldii as the substrate for the formation of calcium carbonate. We fou...
